A Week in Ireland: Dublin, Cork & Galway
8 days | 11 days with London extension | Estimated monthly payments as low as $138 CAD
Waste no time getting to the core of Irish culture.
Luck of the Irish? We prefer to call it charm. Filled with trademark emerald landscapes, loaded with intriguing history, and burnished by its people’s sparkling wit, the island nation of Ireland has dazzled visitors time and again. On this tour, you’ll roam its leading cities, savoring pub culture and diving into the country’s past. And we couldn’t forget about its natural wonders: You’ll see all the heavy hitters, from the rocky Burren to the Cliffs of Moher, over the course of one magical week—and if you aren’t quite ready to stow your carry-ons, tack on an extra couple of days in London.

I just returned from my first EFGoAhead tour and it was everything I hoped and wished for. It was my first solo trip as a widow and I felt accepted and appreciated and mingled with everyone. I would highly recommend GoAhead and Matt our English tour guide.
